Chapter 0010: Stick Honey Dates

A group of corpse collectors, frightened, hurriedly expressed their loyalty, each trembling visibly, clearly terrified. However, recalling the previous events and thinking of the spirit stones, their eyes shone with excitement, eager to piece together the map immediately.

If the people from Wanyong Trading Company do not control all these individuals, and send someone to guard them, I will twist my head off and give it to you as a chamber pot

Finally found them, the bastards of the San Shan Gang. No wonder they destroyed the map; it turns out it was to prevent anyone from obtaining the complete map. After shattering the map, they transformed it into tattoos inked on different individuals. These country bumpkins are indeed ruthless; knowing they cannot survive, they stubbornly insist that the map is destroyed, but refuse to mention the tattoos.

Touching the peculiar mark on his neck, Qin Yang cast a glance at the pile of corpses on the ground, and suddenly an idea sprang to his mind

I dare not, absolutely dare not, rest assured, Qiu Guan Shi...

With a shift in thought, Qin Yang couldn't help but grit his teeth, immediately dismissing this notion.

I found something! The pockmarked face shouted at the top of his lungs, his whole being seemed to be energized, and his voice even changed pitch

You can rest assured, Manager Qiu, this is what we excel at, and we will definitely not let you down! The pockmarked face was suddenly invigorated, and the whole person seemed to float up; if we double the existing amount, wouldn't that mean a twenty-fold reward? This is a business deal worth over ten thousand first-grade spirit stones, and even after ten years, one might not be able to accumulate this much!

The best course of action now is to quickly escape from here, as this is the only way to have a glimmer of hope

The reason for following directly before was not solely to confirm certain matters for myself; more importantly, it was clear at that time that the person in charge, Qiu, was not only a Foundation Establishment cultivator but also not a newly advanced one. At the very least, they were at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, and their spiritual energy was overflowing, indicating that they possessed no fewer than four high-quality magical artifacts.

I hadn't figured out how to escape unscathed, but now it's clear. With this scoundrel stirring things up, there's no need to think anymore

Qiu Guan's eyes flashed with a glimmer of brilliance, and a fleeting expression of joy crossed his face. At this moment, he did not mind the gruesome appearance of the severed limbs and remains; he extended his fair hand to gently brush over the tattoo, his entire being trembling slightly

Hehe... Qin Yang bared his teeth and let out a dry laugh, saying, "Thank you, thank you to your whole family. I wish I could strangle you right now!"

Qiu Guan looked at the group below, their faces pale with fear and trembling like chaff in the wind, and immediately nodded in satisfaction, revealing a hint of a smile once again

Tonight, I must escape; otherwise, there will be no more opportunities.

Absolutely complete the task well

These grave diggers are somewhat useful, as they were able to discover this; however, it remains uncertain whether the map can be fully pieced together

A dozen or so people all trembled, their bodies stiffened as if a mountain were pressing down on them

This matter is of utmost importance and must be approached with caution, especially since issues have arisen in the past. However, as long as you complete the task, the reward will be doubled once again. The Wan Yong Trading Company will not treat those who sincerely assist us unfairly

At the sound of this dry howl, after a brief moment, a young servant walked in from outside, somewhat listless, and casually asked a question.

This is a warning, there is something suspicious. Even if they manage to escape today, they will undoubtedly meet their demise. The only way to survive is to work diligently here, which will instead lead to substantial profits.

Strike with a stick to get a date, this tactic is quite effective

Qiu Guan Shi cast a glance and casually tossed something, and immediately, more than a dozen silver snakes flew out, wrapping around the necks of the crowd. Then, they intertwined, and with a crisp sound, they transformed into a silver ring that tightly encircled everyone's necks

Rest assured, Manager Qiu, we absolutely have no ulterior motives

The young servant rushed out, his pockmarked face grinning widely, his mouth nearly stretching to the roots of his ears, excitedly patting Qin Yang on the shoulder: "Kid, don't worry, if this works, I'll take the credit, and I won't forget your benefits. That one hundred spirit stones you promised me before, you can keep them; consider it a reward for you, no need to thank me! I'm so happy, so happy, hahaha..."

This is not a society governed by the rule of law, as the bodies of the San Shan Gang members are still glaringly displayed before us

Last year, when I first arrived here, I was so hungry that my vision blurred. I survived by scavenging from corpses for food. Qin Yang would not recklessly confront an opponent he knows he cannot defeat, seeking death over such trivial matters.

At this point, even those envious and resentful grave diggers behind were staring wide-eyed at the pile of corpses, eagerly waiting to rush forward

Qiu Guan left with great satisfaction, and over here, no one was watching the corpse collector at work, seemingly quite at ease

Hmm? Just wait. The young servant's eyes instantly became sharp; just a moment ago, he appeared listless and on the verge of death, but now he was suddenly invigorated...

Qiu Guan glanced at the severed limbs and remains with a hint of melancholy. No wonder those fellows from the San Shan Gang were even more tight-lipped after witnessing their companions' tragic deaths. They had already resigned themselves to the fact that they would undoubtedly perish, taking their secrets to the grave. Our Wan Yong Trading Company has suffered even greater losses

But now, seeing the hidden fragments of the map within these tattoos, Qin Yang knew that this was indeed a serious problem

Strong practitioners in the later stage of foundation establishment

"Well done, this item is very valuable." Qiu Guanshi revealed a slight smile and patted the shoulder of the man with pockmarked face: "I can make the decision to increase your reward tenfold, while the others will have their rewards doubled. You all need to work on this item right now, and if you can produce a complete set, I will double the reward again based on the current amount!"

Look here, the tattoos on this building complex, and the tattoo on this person's arm, do they not perfectly connect with the tattoos of this building complex? This tattoo must have been done recently; the person's skills are quite good, generally unnoticeable. However, after the body has been left for a night, the difference between this new tattoo and the older ones can be slightly discerned. I have dealt with corpses, and I will definitely not miss anything!" The pockmarked face spoke rapidly, ... chattering away ... chattering away ...

A group of people hurriedly began to complete the task, while Qin Yang secretly smiled wryly, realizing the vast disparity in strength, leaving him completely powerless to resist

As Qin Yang was deep in thought, contemplating his next move, a sudden scream from beside him abruptly interrupted his train of thought

More importantly, the attitude of this steward Qiu was not one of arrogance, but rather a kind of indifference, as if he would not care even if he were to trample Qin Yang to death on the spot. Qin Yang understood clearly that if he were to confront him head-on at that moment, it would be tantamount to a direct clash... and he was merely at the sixth level of his energy cultivation, so the outcome would certainly not be favorable for him.

Soon, the manager Qiu of Wanyong Trading Company entered from outside

As soon as the words fell, Qiu Guan Shi suddenly erupted with a strong aura, forcefully pressing down on everyone.

What have you discovered

This object is called "Qiqiao" and is a small gadget crafted by a master of mechanisms. As long as one is within close proximity to the true essence power, it will explode with a bang. Only the unique key that accompanies it can unlock it, and it shrinks slightly every day. For an ordinary person, it would take just one week to be suffocated to death.

However, with a hint of a cold smile at the corner of his mouth, Qiu Guan Shi glanced around and said, "To be honest with you, these items, when pieced together, form a map. Our Wan Yong Trading Company values it greatly, but as for you, I do not trust you."

Considering the people guarding outside, even the servants are at least at the sixth level of Qi cultivation. Reflecting on the individuals encountered on the way in, there were two seen at the Foundation Establishment stage, and with the influence of the Wanyong Commercial House, the pressure suddenly became overwhelming.

The pockmarked face, with a smirk and bent over, approached with a fawning demeanor, and in just a few words revealed their discovery

Moreover, these fools cannot possibly think that after being told this secret, they can continue to live happily while holding onto their money
